From the days when inserts were neat !!!
1966 Topps Rub-Offs have colorful, attractive pictures, which
by rubbing the reverse side with a coin (quarters worked best),
could be applied to surfaces like desks, books or walls.
YEAH - A great item for kids - a HUGE nightmare for parents and teachers !!!
In 1961 Topps issued a similar item called "Magic Rub-Offs".
There were 36 different in that set. Topps went way further with their
1966 issue of (120) rub-offs (100 players & 20 pennants).
The rub-offs were inserts, one per 1966 Topps wax pack.
The 2-1/6 inch by 3 inch rub-offs were printed in rolls
of 20 different.
Apparently some kids placed rub-offs of certain players on their bats
to help them hit like the player. I wish I would have known ...
I could have used the help.
